Posted by Juicebox on August 15, 2013
Dubstep fans, today is your lucky day. Up and comer, Dotcom, who has recently exploded onto the scene with his heavy hitting remixes & melodic riffs, has released an hour mix packed with bangers. Following up both the greatest week of the year (shark week) and the greatest movie of the year (sharknado), Dotcom has appropriately entitled this mix, “#Sharknado.” This half hour mix features all the heavy hitters including Candyland, Martin Garrix, & even an original from Dotcom himself.
Electro-House | Martin Garrix – Animals

With his BFAM, Julian Jordan making his way to New York this Saturday, Martin Garrix provides us with his long awaited festival hit. The saga behind the song has helped its fame to this point. It was first IDed by Spinnin Records as Hardwell & GTA track, possibly to get the hype going. Then from there it was IDed as a Sidney Samson & Martin Garrix song, and though it is now just Martin Garrix’s single, one cannot rule out the possibility of Samson providing a little guidance since he has acted a mentor to him.
“Animals” embraces the minimal drops being championed by all ranges of producers in 2013, in part as a quick fix for staying relevant in the festival season, and another because there seems to be an insatiable appetite for it by the fans. With a more innovative style than most coming out today, “Animals” relies on a quick succession of pitched percussion, and a big room build to bring the track together. Look for this to be played often this summer and watch for it on Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings Compilation, releasing this Friday, June 21st.

Electro-House | Sidney Samson & Martin Garrix – Torrent

I have never been that big a fan of Sidney Samson with his bleepy dutch style being a little too abrasive for the ears and Martin Garrix seems like his a product of being very young and marketable with a good team putting his talent in front of the right people at the right time, however this song by the two of these Dutchmen is quite good. The track leaves behind Sidney Samson’s blistering bleeps and instead moves to more what we have seen with Martin Garrix with pitched saws, a big room interlude and a prominent buzzing low-end. Tiesto’s Musical Freedom rarely misses with its releases and “Torrent” is yet another example of that.

Electro-House | Julian Jordan & Martin Garrix – BFAM

The two budding Dutch producers, who’s combined age on looks would have trouble getting into an American bar, certainly don’t lack talent, notably with Julian Jordan putting out some solid remixes this year and “Kangaroo” being a huge single. “BFAM” or “Brother From Another Mother”, is a testament to their long friendship as the track combines soothing interludes with a chugging, grinding electro drop. The support for this track is already flying in from all over, so be sure to watch out for this song and for these guys in the not so distant future.
